Fu Yu found a noodle shop and pulled Li Xuanzu inside.
Whether it was because business was slow or because it wasn't mealtime yet, there was only a couple sitting together eating noodles in the noodle shop.
"Boss, two bowls of egg noodles, two ounces of beef, and two jugs of homemade rice wine." Fu Yu glanced at the menu briefly before deciding what to eat.
The boss was a chubby middle-aged man, and his wife was also a bit chubby; sitting together, they actually looked quite like a married couple.
"You can still drink?" Li Xuanzu asked, raising an eyebrow at Fu Yu after finding a seat.
"Hmph, don't underestimate me. I can brew wine, let alone drink it." Fu Yu said, putting her hands on her hips and giving me a "praise me" look.
"Impressive. If I had the chance, I'd like to try it." Li Xuanzu's eyes flashed with a complex expression as he subconsciously spoke.
"Don't worry, you'll drink your fill then, you'll never run out of drinks in your lifetime." Fu Yu was very pleased, her nose practically pointing to the sky.
Almost subconsciously, a smile appeared on Li Xuanzu's lips, without him even realizing it.
Unlike before, he did not criticize Fu Yu.
"Here you are, your food is served. Please enjoy." The owner placed a large plate on the table for the two of them, wiping his greasy hands on his apron.
"I don't eat eggs, you eat them." Li Xuanzu didn't wait for Fu Yu to say anything and picked up the fried egg from his noodles.
Fu Yu paused for a moment, then whispered "thank you," and the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.
Although Li Xuanzu is quite famous online, his body has been replaced, and the people of the Dragon Kingdom are unaware of this for the time being. As for Fu Yu, he has hardly ever appeared in front of the public, and even when he has, it's only in the capital.
Therefore, no one present was curious about Li Xuanzu and his companion.
“Honey, let’s have a baby when I become a psychic.” The boy in the young couple spoke up, his voice sounding somewhat abrupt in the quiet noodle shop.
"Hey, keep your voice down, there are other people here." The woman gave the man a playful shove.
"Hey, it's nothing shameful, right, brother over there?" The man's eyes were full of smiles, and his doting affection was almost overflowing.
"Haha, that's right, I wish you a son soon." Li Xuanzu seemed to be in a good mood today and was willing to chat with the man for a while.
"See, I told you, we'd have two kids, a boy and a girl, hehe." The man was very satisfied with the answer, then changed the subject, "Brother, you and your girlfriend seem to have a good relationship, aren't you planning to have a child?"
"Us?" For the first time, Li Xuanzu was flustered by ordinary people and couldn't answer for a moment.
“I…we’re not planning on that yet, right…” Fu Yu answered first, nudging Li Xuanzu with her elbow.
He was practically burying his face in his chest.
"Ah...haha, yes, we're still psionicists, living hand to mouth outside, we haven't even considered that yet." Li Xuanzu said, his hand unconsciously resting on Fu Yu's shoulder, bringing the two much closer.
Fu Yu did not refuse; instead, she leaned on Li Xuanzu's shoulder.
"Brother, you're a psionicist? I'm so envious. At least you have the ability to protect yourself in the apocalypse. But I'll be a psionicist soon too. Maybe we'll run into each other when we go out hunting zombies. Please take care of me then." The man was very familiar with the situation and didn't take the matter to heart.
No one expects help from someone the moment they meet them; it's just polite talk.
Li Xuanzu nodded without saying anything, but the man's female companion seemed a little anxious.
"What are you still standing there for? The noodles are getting cold." The woman reminded him from behind. Only then did the man realize that he had stood up at some point, and the noodles in front of him had clumped together.
"Let me heat it up for you, young man." The chubby boss, who was sitting to the side, listened with great interest, his smiling eyes occasionally glancing at his own man. They seemed to have a very good relationship. Seeing this, he came over.
After the owner brought the noodles back, he also brought out a few plates of peanuts, saying they were a free gift. The people present had become quite familiar with each other and started chatting.
However, there is a generation gap, and most of the time they just talk past each other.
The bosses chatted about everyday matters, while the young couple talked about their lofty ambitions. Li Xuanzu and Fu Yu just listened quietly, unable to get a word in edgewise.
After paying, the two left the noodle shop.
Fu Yu's face was still flushed, whether from her poor alcohol tolerance or from what had just happened, it was hard to tell.
"We don't have any plans to have children yet..." Li Xuanzu was about to continue the conversation when Fu Yu interrupted him.
"I...I've had too much to drink. Please take me home." Fu Yu didn't dare to look Li Xuanzu in the eye and quickly made an excuse to get away.
